The Club

2015 · 97 min

A cold, airless chamber piece that watches guilt fester behind closed doors, leaving you uneasy long after.

Overview: In a secluded house in a small seaside town live four unrelated men and the woman who tends to the house and their needs. All former priests, they have been sent to this quiet exile to purge the sins of their pasts, the separation from their communities the worst form of punishment by the Church. They keep to a strict daily schedule devoid of all temptation and spontaneity, each moment a deliberate effort to atone for their wrongdoings.

About: Guilt, faith, corruption, isolation
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
